I know, you thought I was going to say ‘terminated’ rather than ‘on hold.’ And I really want to. Does Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s divorce and BabyGate mean that we won’t have to sufferThe Governator?

Briefly: As the giant ‘WTF?’ of Arnold Schwarzenegger‘s animated series The Governator continues to crawl towards release, we’re getting a few new details.

But over the last couple weeks word emerged that his first new project would be a TV series. That soon was adjusted to an animated TV series.
